I have visited Oban many times and enjoy trying new hotels in the area, sadly this hotel has disappointed me on so many levels. On first impressions the hotel gives off a lovely impression by the seafront but once inside the tired interior and over bearing smell takes hold! I could write a very long description of how awful this... more

The staff member referred to in ths review, which by the way is not a review of the hotel, had accessed the bar till without authorisation. The till was found to be down since that staff member had accessed the till, which was proven not to have been accessed by anyone else. I am sure that many businesses would have...

My wife and I, plus two friends stayed for 6 nights in Sept. The hotel looks great from the front but then you see the main bedroom building is a 70's type of rectangle block built around the back. It gave an initial feeling of walking into a Holiday Inn and wasn't what we expected. The bedrooms were clean and... more

Myself and my wife spent three days in Oban during the first week of August. We had originally booked into the Columba Hotel but that turned out to be dirty and completely sub standard so we booked out the very next morning and moved to the Queens. What a difference, we found the staff helpful and polite and attentive without... more

Me and my Partner had a great time in Oban. We stayed there for 3 nights, went to Mull and Iona( thanks for the chef for giving us a tip about the journey- she was very helpful and friendly). Our bedroom was very clean, a bit too small but, comfortable. The breakfast next morning(cooked to order) was delicious, my poached... more

The old part of the building has a small number of rooms that look over Oban bay & the isle of Kerrera, but the majority of the rooms are to the rear of the hotel (woodland behind the hotel) in a 1960/70s extension. Don't let this put you off as its recently been bought by new owner who seem to... more

The hotel was clean and fairly well appointed. Breakfast selection was good and service was quick. The whole stay was spoiled however by the lack of parking and the lack of any real help in finding parking. We had to drag our suitcases half a mile to our car in the morning. Probably a good choice if you don't have... more

Stayed here with my partner for one night. The room was a nice size for both of us, with a nice double bed. We also had a spa bath, expecting something amazing but it was just a normal bath with jets in it, dont get me wrong it was really good but we just expected a type of corner bath... more

So basic I couldn't wait to leave. Nothing terrible just nothing really great. All the parking taken by the staff. Elevator that should be condemned. Just a low rent hotel in a town that should be passed. Very clean and the foreign staff was very nice. more

just had a pleasant couple of days in oban, found the queens hotel to be clean and smart, food was decent enough, good choice at breakfast, though it would have been easier if dishes had been labeled as you had to lift all lids to see what was in container, young lady on reception was very friendly and pleasant however... more
